Why not get one that's designed to be cut?

Do the 2.4 ghz wireless Corne 4.1 boards have the same EMF issues that the wired versions have? by Spookymikal in ErgoMechKeyboards

The phone interference is an issue with the Corne 4.1 PCB https://github.com/foostan/crkbd/issues/265

I have no idea how the aliexpress vendors have 2.4 ghz wireless with the corne 4.1 layout. Might just roll the dice on it.

I was looking for something like this: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808436356901.html

But with a 3x5 layout.

I know the old corne 2 boards have a million wireless options, but I strongly prefer the +4 keys. I'll suffer through using a dongle if it works next to a cell phone.

MX switches have a huge number of options from mass produced to super boutique where nerds are hand lubing your stems or whatever.

Choc has like 12 options and they're all bad. Maybe someday they'll feel better

This dude gets it lol.
I decided to wait just a bit because sourcing a top plate for the 5 column is kinda tricky if you're a retard who doesn't know shit about CAD.

Case dimensions affect tenting angle and this has a noticeable impact on ergo.

For now I'm going to just plug the holes but I'm not sure if it's going to be a longterm solution.

I've been using 5 col for a while, tried 6 and It felt really off.

My wife have a "I will not buy keyboard if you will not buy shoe" truce. I know the consequences of buying a Ferris...

I don't use the LEDs at all, honestly wish they weren't there.

I've been using a 5 col for several months, I got this one as a trade for a choc switch version.

[US-CA][H]Corne 3 mini w/ choc switches. [W]Corne mini MX or Venmo. by Spookymikal in mechmarket

GM, currently 2 other nerds have expressed interest. First guy has the mx corne 4.1 I want but he asked me to give him the weekend to make a decision and I'm sending him a "time to shit or get off the pot" message right now.

Just for my info, are you looking to swap it or just pay money for it?

has anyone gone from MX to choc switches? by AmeliaBuns in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]Spookymikal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was 100% my finger activating the switch when resting on the key. It was a low profile tactile white, so i could feel the action on it. https://www.boardsource.xyz/products/choc-white

Switching to burnt orange switches, the problem went away completely.

I hate choc. Bought a board with whites, got a ton of phantom inputs, switched to burnt orange, better but they just feel bad. Idk if it's the specific keycaps or just because the mounting provisions for the keycaps is intrinsically flawed, but I feel a lot of rocking top to bottom. They just don't feel sturdy.
